We do not carry any replacement keys for the Gorilla Guard Trailer Coupler Lock # 63228 as the manufacturer does not provide these. I recommend replacing your lock with the Trimax Dual Purpose Coupler Lock # TMX77FR. This will allow you to order replacement keys directly from Trimax by simply ordering the key based on the number stamped on the key. This way you could still get a replacement key if you lost both your keys.
